Blogging

I am in many Facebook groups for bloggers. Lately, I have seen a lot of the same questions being asked by new bloggers who were creating their new blog. Their question was: “Is it important to buy the option for the confidentiality of the domain name?”, “Is it important to purchase the whois protection?”. My answer: it depends on what you prefer to do. At the end of this blog post, you will be able to make your decision.

In this article, I will show you a concrete example so that you can understand why it is important to do so. If you do not buy it, anyone can have access to your phone number, home address, full name and email address … and more.

Only a few people have realized the number of hours of work that are invested in a blog. Having a blog isn’t just about writing articles. You also have to promote, send a lot of emails, do administration tasks, worry about security, make site backups, and so on. The list is very long!

Fortunately, we come across some tools along the way that will help us to do the tasks that are necessary for the success of our blogs. IFTTT is one of them, and it can help you by automating a lot of your recurrent tasks!

You just created a WordPress blog, but what do you do next? This article is here to help you so that you can create your blog, smoothly! I decided to write this list of steps when my loved ones decided that they want to start a blog as well.

This guide applies to a blog created with WordPress.org. However, some steps may also apply if you have a new blog on another platform. Please consider that all these steps are my suggestions, and these are the steps I usually take when creating a new blog.

A few months ago, I was looking for a new template to change the look of my WordPress blog. Since it was my first purchase of this kind, I was a bit lost when it came to making the right decision. There are so many WordPress templates available on the market, so how was I supposed to know if I was choosing the right one? As a student, the money invested was a considerable amount, so I knew I was going to have to make a decision for a long-term theme. I had no desire to regret my choice.

Of course, I made some mistakes (like not verifying if my theme was WPML compatible)! In this article, I will explain step by step what I did and what I should have done to avoid these errors. I will also guide you on the right criteria to look at so that you choose to buy the one that suits you the most!

I started again to blog every day almost a year ago. During the past year, good habits have resumed, and I can present you the tools that I would not be able to do without in my life as a blogger.

I use all these tools in free version since I am a student and do not have a job! On the other hand, if I would be able to pay for some services, other tools would be found here as CoSchedule and TailWind – but this list focuses on free services! If you want to try TailWind, by the way, the link gives you $30 in credit which is a whole month of upgrading your Pinterest game! 🙂
